What happens when you meditate ?

Meditation is the main step of Yoga. Though there are several ways one can meditate, the ultimate destination of most meditations is the same, provided certain minimum criteria are met. What happens before one reaches that ultimate destination? Is it going to be a sudden jump into the final destination, or are there different stages in between?
